Yes. Along with our normal web hosting packages for your company website, which allow you to install WordPress, 1&1 provides specialized WordPress tariffs. If you want to use the popular content management system WordPress to run your website, look no further than our WordPress Hosting Package.

Do companies receive a domain for their business websites?

Depending on which package you choose, you can establish multiple domains. You have a choice between classic top level domains (TLDs), like .com, .org, .info, or .eu, and the new TLDs, such as .california, .chicago, and many more. With business solutions from 1&1 you will be able to find just the right domain for your company website. What's more, the new top level domains allow you to tailor your web address to suit your business perfectly. Do you work in real estate? Make that immediately obvious to potential clients by choosing the .realestate domain. The .business domain, on the other hand, explicitly states that your website is a business website, and a domain name that references a location lets your clients know exactly where you offer your services, whether that is .chicago, .california, or a different location entirely.
